Chinese people commonly referred to as the "Heaven" of the Earth in outer space, humanity has become following the land, sea and air after the most concerned about the "fourth territory."

Former U.S. President John F. Kennedy once said: "Who can control the space, who can control the Earth." Former United States President George W Bush signed a presidential decree in particular to allow the deployment of the United States in the offensive and defensive space weapons. U.S. space strategy for growing this line of thought is clear.

Russia is not a sign of weakness, was formally established in 2001, "Space Force" - the space force. At present, Russia's space combat system has made great progress.

Europe, Japan, India, Iran, North Korea, also have announced their own space program. The vast universe, boundless space, the world fighting each other. May not be long before the Chinese classical mythology depicting the "Soldiers of Heaven" will become a reality.

Sixtieth anniversary of the founding of new China, the PLA Academy of Military Science researcher Wang faan reporter in an exclusive interview that focused on the future development trends and the world situation changes, China's armed forces building in the services should also be timely to consider and plan the construction of a good space forces .

Wang-an, said the sixties to the founding of New China, the Chinese armed forces of the major achievements of the construction services can be summarized as four changes: First, from a single army to a modern synthesis of different branches of the armed forces of change; The second is the realization of the Army infantry as the main Army to a modern synthesis of the various branches of the armed forces of change; Third, Navy, Air Force, Second Artillery, such as professional and technical services to achieve from scratch, from weak to strong changes; four branches of the structure dominated by the army to the land , sea and air, the Second Artillery Force of the change in the proportion of more coordination.

People's Liberation Army sixties the development of building services, in general, can be divided into three historical stages --

The first stage, the founding of New China to the mid-fifties of the last century, has set up the Navy, Air Force and the creation of the army artillery, armor, engineering, signals, anti-chemical warfare, such as professional and technical branches of the armed forces, and in the specific historical conditions, the study of Soviet the formation of anti-air two major branches of the armed forces and public security forces.

The second phase, the mid-fifties of the last century to the late eighties to remove air defense and public security forces to restore the three major land, sea and air military services, the establishment in 1966 of China's strategic missile forces the Second Artillery Corps, in 1986 the new army air. This stage, the Army further to the motor and the direction of the development of synthesis and at the same time focus on the development of weapons and equipment of various arms and services to enhance combat capability.

The third stage, the last century to the present nineties, inspired by the Gulf War, to meet the high-tech warfare, information warfare, especially the world needs a new revolution in military affairs, the building of the People's Liberation Army major changes in services, can be said to be a qualitative change:

First, one million in 1985 following a major disarmament after the 1997 and 2003, respectively, disarmament and 500,000, 200,000, and further more substantial low-compression technology forces, the Army focused on compression infantry. Second, with high technical content has been further strengthened the forces, the Army's focus on the development of Army tactical missile forces, electronic warfare units, special operations units, etc.; focus on the development of large-scale naval surface ship force, the new submarine force, marines, etc.; the Air Force focus on the development of airborne early warning surveillance and electronic warfare forces, the new fighter force, air defense missile units, air transport units, and to strengthen the airborne building; the Second Artillery Corps to further consolidate the strategic nuclear force-building, focus on the development of conventional missile forces, to strengthen the power of building mobile launchers. The third is to enter the twenty-first century, the construction services to the development of sea and air, the Second Artillery Corps, focusing on a further decline in the proportion of the army, sea, air, increase the proportion of the Second Artillery Corps.

Wang Hui said the full implementation of the new century, focusing on a new stage of the military mission, focused information technology to win local wars under conditions to improve the military response to a variety of security threats, complete diversified military tasks, the PLA's construction and development services general trend, information warfare is to adapt the system against the characteristics of the requirements to adapt to the integration of joint operations, and further optimize the structure of services and arms and give full play to better combat arms length, to enhance safeguarding the nation's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, space and electromagnetic space security and counter-terrorism , emergency relief, the ability of the international peacekeeping mission.

Specifically, the Army to accelerate the building of expertise in synthesis, and more sensitive to the strength of the new ground to improve the open space in one, long-range mobility, rapid assault and special operations capabilities; gradually increase the Navy's strategic depth coastal defense, improve the comprehensive combat capability at sea and nuclear counterattack ability to focus on the development of large surface combat vessels, the new submarines, supersonic combat aircraft and long-range cruise missiles; the Air Force to speed up by the land-based air defense to both offensive and defensive transition, improve air strikes, air defense anti-ballistic missile, early warning surveillance and strategic delivery capability; the Second Artillery often gradually improve both the strength of the nuclear system, and improve the information under the condition of the strategic deterrence and conventional strike capability.

At the same time, armed forces but also to develop special operations units, to strengthen the power of information warfare and psychological operations forces, and timely planning for the formation of space forces.

The military experts, is a mechanized division services large industrial era, the world's major powers are basically similar to the structure of the services. Some scholars believe that at present, from the information warfare and information-based trends in the development of the armed forces, the armed forces increasingly blurred boundaries, it was predicted that service will be canceled and will be replaced by information technology, network integration under the condition, according to the specific needs of combat missions deploy combat units to modular, integrated task-based grouping of combat forces to launch. He believes that, with the weapons and equipment and technology more complex, the future of the professional division of labor will become more and more small arms, the integration will also be getting higher and higher degrees.

Attractive section of content. I just stumbled upon your weblog and in accession capital to assert that I get in fact loved account your blog posts. Any way I'll be subscribing to your feeds and even I fulfillment you access persistently fast.

I drop a leave a response each time I especially enjoy a post on a blog or I have something to contribute to the discussion.

It is caused by the sincerness communicated in the article I browsed. And after this post "Military experts said that China should be timely to consider the formation of space forces".

I was actually moved enough to post a leave a responsea response :-) I do have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind. Could it be only me or does it look as if like a few of the comments look like they are coming from brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing at additional sites, I would like to follow you.
